Reading now. It’s a pleasure to read an actor’s professional biography by Huang, someone so conversant in critical theory. I don’t usually read bios because they don’t have necessary historical context: plenty here. #WalterBenjamin #MarleneDietrich were fans of Wong.

Very remiss of me to assume that a link on academia dot edu could just be opened without going through the rigmarole of opening an account there (which I would automatically refuse if I encountered that obstacle). So here's an open link to the pdf of an essay on philosophical configurations of anomalous experience #Neurology #Migraine #FortificationSpectrum #Coincidence #CriticalTheory #WalterBenjamin #TheodorAdorno #AnomalousExperience #AnomalousPhenomena https://thegrammarofmatter.wordpress.com/2023/09/03/between-fractured-landscape-and-neurological-event-a-philosophical-configuration-of-anomalous-experience/

From 27-30 September there will be the international #WalterBenjamin Conference in Warsaw on the topic of "Politics of Justice".

The program is out now and there are going to be so many interesting talks on! Have a look yourself:

Da soll nochmal eine:r sagen, Philosophie hätte keine konkreten Ratschläge für die Praxis. Hier ist einer von #WalterBenjamin:

"Mag man beim Essen, wenn es sein muß, die Zeitung lesen. Aber niemals einen Roman. Das sind Obliegenheiten, die sich schlagen."

For Adorno the essay has to cause the totality to be illuminated in a partial feature. Here an abandoned dovecote near the Gop Cairn and Cave becomes an earthly correspondence with the Talmudic tradition that the Messiah will not come until the ‘heavenly birdhouse’ is emptied of all its souls.

Looks like it was a #1980s day at #SCOTUS. But I hadn’t realized Walter Benjamin was becoming relevant for American fair-use jurisprudence.

I think the intent of the article isn’t to argue for hard determinism. #Zizek lays out a more compatibilist stance in The Parallax View, but he’s really drawing more on our interpretation of history from #WalterBenjamin and the idea of a “weak messianic power” make success from failed revolutions of the past. Recontextualizing the same causal chain to open up new futures via our subjectivity.

So we went to #batterseapowerstation. I think #WalterBenjamin would have had a thing or two to say.

Something seems very strange or jarring about buying an ebook copy of Walter Benjamin's 'The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction'.

Can the original of a digital image have an 'aura'?

Is the aura of an NFT located somewhere in the blockchain?

@ib #walterbenjamin uses this as a metaphor for the end of historicism

Reconfigured these thoughts on the constellation between the stuttering 'speckled, speckled speculation' of #Captain Beefheart and the 'intermittent rhythm' of #Adorno's 'logic of disintegration' here. In #TroutMaskReplica as in #WalterBenjamin's #Trauerspiel, the 'exuberant subjection of antique elements... would, in destruction, still be superior to the harmonies of antiquity' (The Origin of German Tragic Drama 1998: 178-179).
